… I_D is plotted against the drain voltage V_D for various gate voltages. For a given gate voltage (e.g., V_G = 0), the drain current initially increases linearly with drain voltage, indicating that the conductive channel acts as a constant resistor. As the drain voltage increases, however, the cross-sectional area of…
